3 Jun 09 - More than 250 people crowded into hotel meeting rooms to
hear a dozen elite scientists and economists refute the claim that
global warming is either man-made or would have harmful effects on
Earth.

Dr. Jeff Kueter, an economist and president of the George C. Marshall
Institute, cited independent economic studies that showed the diversion
of capital to emission permits from the investment in new plant and
equipment in the U.S. economy would:

reduce employment by 1.1 million jobs a year
from 2012 to 2030, and more than double that job-loss in 2035.

slash gross domestic product by an average of
$491 billion a year from 2012 to 2035, and hit $662 billion in 2035
-- a total evaporation of productive output of goods and services
worth more than $9.4 trillion.

reduce average global temperatures by an
insignificant 0.36º F by 2100 and by 0.09º F by 2050.

U.S. Rep. James Sensenbrenner (R-Wis.), a veteran global warming
skeptic, urged attendees to call Waxman-Markey a "cap-and-tax plan" that
amounts to "unilateral disarmament in the economic sphere" for American
businesses and workers.

Another long-time skeptic, Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (D-Calif.), provoked
sustained applause when he declared that the partisans of Waxman-Markey
are "stampeding the public and elected officials in the biggest power
grab in the history of human kind."

Economist Dr. Gabriel Calzada of King Juan Carlos University in
Madrid reviewed the dismal performance of cap-and-trade mandates in
Spain, where unemployment has reached a daunting 18 percent, carbon
emissions are higher today than before cap-and-trade was installed, and
fraud and misrepresentation of emission abatement programs are rampant.

Calzada presented data that showed Spanish businesses have spent
billions of dollars on carbon credits and abatement programs, resulting
in two jobs being lost in the regular economy or never being created for
every one job created in the "green economy."

Energy industry scholar Ben Lieberman of The Heritage Foundation
rounded out the economists' dire projections by showing that the added
costs stemming from Waxman-Markey would average $4,618 a year through
2035, creating a total additional outlay of more than $110,000 with no
added benefit to the family's quality of life or personal consumption.

Dr. Richard Lindzen, MIT professor of meteorology, said the premises
underlying global-warming alarmism "are meaningless except in the
propaganda war" being waged by a compliant mainstream media and a
scientific community that finds it easier "to accept authority than
disputing questions that are at issue."

Dr. Patrick Michaels, a Cato Institute scholar and research professor
of environmental studies at the University of Virginia, blamed some of
the success of doomsday alarmism on the absence of fact-checking in
mainstream media when alarmists go on a sortie.

Lord Christopher Monckton, former science advisor to Prime Minister
Margaret Thatcher, who has closed each of the two previous international
climate conferences, once again brought the crowd to its feet in a
cheering standing ovation.

"In the end, it will be here, in the United States, that the truth
will first emerge, said Monckton. “Not in Europe, for we are no longer
free. ... It is here, in this great nation founded upon liberty, that
the battle for the world's freedom will be won."
